I am glad the peel went well for you! And as a whole you've achieved such big improvement that inspires people to seek treatment too.

What kind of side effects do you mean? Who was the treating physician? I thought the phenol peel is safe as long as it is done by experienced physician.

At least one person has had a bad reaction to every recommended treatment on this forum.

Hypopigmentation for phenol chemabrasion is the big one, rare but it happens. It doesn't matter the physician, all surgery/invasive procedures carry risk.

Yes, there's risk with everything. Hypopigmentation is a risk with skin types III-VI mostly, I've heard. Above III.
